Shit, I just got a vasectomy, pesticides baths would probably have been cheaper.

Not to mention our bug populations have dramatically decreased within my lifetime. Remember when road trips meant cleaning off your windshield a bunch afterwards? Not anymore. Couldn't mean anything though... Nothing to see here. We need to ensure Monsanto keeps their Roundup profits as high as possible.

- The pesticide is functioning as intended.
- It's actually not, not even close. That's just capitalism blaming the problems of thoughtless consumption it causes, on people
  
  Hard to consume or participate in a capitalist system when you were never born.
